Full-stack Network Developer / Engineer

Update System
SmiteWorks is looking for a full-stack network engineer and developer to fine-tune our systems for Fantasy Grounds Unity (FGU). FGU uses a new update patch system and installer written in Unity with a back-end LAMP system for internal use publishing content. The system works now but we want to vastly improve the experience, speed and capabilities of this system. We are looking for ways to dramatically increase the speed of installs and to allow for optional and dependency based updates.

Installers
We have installers built for Windows and Mac OSX with an installer partially complete for Linux. We need a developer to take over maintenance of existing installers and to complete the Linux (and Steam) installer.

Lobby System
FGU uses a custom Unity interface to a 3rd party lobby system for publicly hosted games. We want to replace this with an in-house lobby system and potentially integrate it with a public calendar system. We would like to expand the lobby system over time to allow pre-game gathering as well.

Network Transports
FGU currently uses a combination of Mirror (connection mgmt), LiteNet4Lib (transport, reliable UDP), and Noble Connect (network facilitation via STUN/TURN/relay) to provide network connectivity. We are looking to replace this with either an alternate solution or with an in-house solution for reliability and speed.

Position Type: Full Time (40-hours per week)
Days: Flexible
Salary: $80,000 / year (commensurate with experience)

    Very nice, shame I'm not US based, though not done network layers and protocols for a few years since I stopped working in .Net.

    We are happy to announce that we hired Steve Melton (smelton on the forums) to join the team as our Full-Stack Network Developer. He has a strong background as a Senior Developer and familiarity with most of the technologies we are using. You may recognize him from an early Line of Sight prototype he built for Fantasy Grounds Classic back in 2016.

    You can check that out here:

    Steve will be joining us on August 10, 2020.
